Title: Workshop on Renewable Energies - Thermoelectrics and PhotovoltaicsLinkVenue: Dr. Poe Lecture Hall
Date: 08/ 27/ 2015 09:00 AM ~ 08/ 28/ 2015 06:00 PM
Abstract: The call for an efficient and affordable renewable source of energy has never been more pronounce than it was a decade ago. Today, new advances in technology have driven us in search of better and sustainable sources of energy to fuel these new developments. In decades of research, it has come to an accepted consensus that there is no one source of renewable energy that can replace the current one and no specific type can provide all of our energy demands for the future. As such, this workshop on renewable energies tackles two of the promising energy sources—thermoelectrics and photovoltaics—that support a sustainable future.
Title: 2015 International Symposium on Contemporary Atomic and Optical PhysicsLinkVenue: Dr. Poe Lecture Hall /National Center for Theoretical Physics
Date: 07/ 08/ 2015 09:00 AM ~ 07/ 10/ 2015 07:00 PM
Abstract: Contemporary atomic and optical physics has been experiencing breathtaking renaissance due to the recent advances on unprecedented control of the atomic and light wavepackets. The advancements of optics on the one hand has led to temporal resolution of attosecond level and frequency resolution of 10-18 level, and on the other hand its light intensity has reached up to petawatt for high-field physics and down to that of single photon for quantum optics studies and quantum information applications. On atomic physics, laser cooling and atom trapping has led to creation of dilute atomic quantum fluids, noticeably Bose-Einstein condensates and degenerate Fermi gases with well controlled atomic interactions for investigation on many-body dynamics toward simulations of exotic quantum matter.
In this symposium we will brings together renowned scholars in these exciting fields to report their recent researches. We hope this symposium can attract more researchers and students to participate in these fields, and can initiate more international collaboration between frontier researchers. The symposium will be held on July 8-10, 2015 with the first two days at Institute of Atomic and Molecular Sciences (IAMS) in Taipei and the last day at National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) in Hsinchu. It is organized by both institutes. The symposium in Taipei is also to celebrate the 20th anniversary of IAMS.
Title: The 8th Conference of Asian Consortium on Computational Materials Science (ACCMS-8)LinkVenue: National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST), Taipei
Date: 06/ 16/ 2015 09:00 AM ~ 06/ 18/ 2015 03:30 PM
Abstract: ACCMS was established in 2000 to nurture and promote research and development activities in computational materials in Asian countries. The first Asian Consortium on Computational Materials Science (ACCMS-1) was successfully held in Bangalore, India in 2001. Then, the meeting was held in Russia (Novosibirsk, ACCMS-2 2004), China (Beijing, ACCMS-3 2005), Korea (Seoul, ACCMS-4 2007), Vietnam (Hanoi, ACCMS-5 2009), Singapore (ACCMS-6 2011), and Thailand (Nakhon Ratchasima, ACCMS-7 2013). In the last ACCMS-7, more than 240 participants from 24 countries enjoyed academic discussions and nature circumstances in Thailand.
ACCMS-8 will continue the tradition of ACCMS. In ACCMS-8, computational physicists, chemists and material scientists will gather to discuss important issues and to share essential progresses in various fields such as biotechnology, catalysis, spintronics, electron transport, thermoelectric effect, energy applications, and etc.
We hope that you will take the opportunity to network with new acquaintances, and to build upon those relationships that have already been established. We look forward to welcoming our friends and colleagues from Asia, as well as other parts of the world.

Title: Carbon-Based Nano-Materials and DevicesLinkVenue: Promised Land Resort & Lagoon, Hualien, Taiwan
Date: 11/ 03/ 2013 06:00 PM ~ 11/ 08/ 2013 01:30 PM
Abstract: Synopsis Carbon-based nano-materials and devices have opened up opportunities for various applications. Recent developments in constructing nanostructures using carbon atoms and organic molecules enable us to create carbon-based nanoscale materials and novel devices with fundamentally new properties and unprecedented functions. Carbon-based nanotechnology is anticipated to dramatically change every aspect of our life. Reflecting the diverse and interdisciplinary nature of nanoscience, carbon-based nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, nanochemistry, nanobiology, and nanobiomedicine are the areas attracting wide attention. These areas not only represent novel and unique chemical strategies to make unprecedented functional carbon-based nanomaterials, but also represent wide-range applications of carbon-based nanodevices. Therefore, a full-scale international conference is timely justified not only for educating scientists and students but also for promoting the intellectual exchange of research ideas.
This conference aims to provide a forum for researchers, scientists and engineers from different countries worldwide, who are actively involved in the research on nanoscience and nanotechnology, in particular on carbon-based nanomaterials and their device applications such as biological and chemical sensing, energy conversion and harvesting, electronic and photonic applications, catalysis, electrochemistry, and simulations, to disseminate their latest research results and development achievements. In addition to the exciting scientific and technological themes, the conference offers a platform to promote and encourage interaction among researchers for cross-fertilization of ideas and collaboration. The program will consist of a series of invited, contributed oral, and poster presentations. To enhance the interaction with poster presenters, they will also give a short introduction (3 min) to advertise their work. In addition, a panel discussion will be held to promote the interaction among scientists and researchers, including discussions on new research directions for carbon-based nano-materials and devices, summary of the current state of the art and future barriers, and projections of future frontiers.

Title: Workshop on Structure and Dynamics of Water in Gas, Liquid and Solid Phases LinkVenue: Dr. Poe Lecture Hall
Date: 11/ 28/ 2012 09:30 AM ~ 11/ 30/ 2012 02:30 PM
Abstract: Water is one of the most important substances of life, and accordingly there are infinite amount of detailed studies to understand the structure and dynamics of water. Many fundamental questions in physics, chemistry and biology are directly related to the chemical and physical properties of water. Due to the complex nature of the problem, numerous different experimental and theoretical methods are required for one to gain understanding on water. Furthermore, water study has a wide range from studies on gas phase water clusters and solid ice phases, to water on metal surfaces, to reactions occurring in aqueous and confined environments. Therefore in this Workshop, we aim to bring together water related researchers from different disciplines to initiate stimulating discussions.
